Proving there is more to Zurich than banking, clean streets and punctuality, this explorer's guide shows a very different side to the Swiss city. An illustrated guide to over 80 fascinating and unusual historical sights in Switzerland's largest city. Roman ruins and medieval walls, curious museums and secret gardens, quirky shops and converted factories. From Roman Turicum and the Old Swiss Confederacy to the Helvetic Republic and the Industrial Revolution. Locations include the home of FIFA, an elephant in the woods, the emperor's paddle steamer, and the original Dark Restaurant. Also Coffee with Lenin, the forgotten Mrs. Einstein, in the footsteps of James Joyce, and a martyr to the Reformation.
